How does class impacts sex slavery?

The powerful people of the elite class are protected by the rulers and law enforcers at the expense of inferior classes. Thus, sex slaves, being the poor weak group of society, are considered to be their pimps that they buy with money, feed their sexual deviances and exploit the rights and self-esteem of women ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"f8pz7v3b","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Kendall, 2019)","plainCitation":"(Kendall, 2019)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":172,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/9Hfkg8Y0/items/8VR7JQDJ"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/9Hfkg8Y0/items/8VR7JQDJ"],"itemData":{"id":172,"type":"book","title":"Social Problems in a Diverse Society","publisher":"Pearson","edition":"7th","language":"en","author":[{"family":"Kendall","given":"Diana"}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["2019"]]},"accessed":{"date-parts":[["2019",10,10]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Kendall, 2019).

What’s the difference between applying human rights to sex workers and acting ethnocentric towards this type of labor?

Sexuality is affected by geography, race, class, society, economy, politics and culture. Just like human rights are never equal for all races, the attitude towards the sex workers of different races is different. The general perception that people of color and mainly women are best in the business is utilized in the wrong way and their rights are forsaken by the white men by oppressing them and using them as sex slaves.

Should prostitution be legal? Why? Apply a sociological perspective in your analysis.

Prostitution should be illegal because any action that cannot be morally accepted and its categorical imperative is not fulfilled in terms of its duty, is a wrong action. Prostitution starts with the ideas of humiliation and degradation that prostitutes suffer at the hands of their clients as well as law enforcement officers and any moral society cannot accept these actions.

What’s the gendered view of sexuality?

Gendered sexuality is the perception of a gender’s heterosexuality which is a default sexual orientation. It is based on the generalized roles of the female and male genders and that the sexual strains are also gender specific like men are more into pornography, pedophilia and sexual explicit actions.

Why is pedophilia viewed as a sexual orientation?

Pedophilia is considered as a sexual orientation because sexual ethicists believe that it is not something people can control rather it is their conditioning that was instilled in them as a cause of sexual abuse in their childhood or neurodevelopmental perturbations. It is believed that it is a sexual preference that pedophiles discover in themselves and not choose it.

If pedophilia is a sexual orientation, why do we criminalize it?

Some ethicist consider that pedophilia is not a sexual orientation. However, the debate is an ongoing issue for quite some time now. Pedophiles are criminalized on the basis of sexual ethical issues that they are involved in an act where minors’ consent has not been considered and such an act is morally, culturally and religiously incorrect in the eyes of the majority.

How does the porn industry fuel the black market of sex slavery?

It is believed that pornography basically affects people’s actions and behavior as it sexually arouses people by the graphical content. Some people consider it as a fantasy mechanism and then imagine and try to involve themselves in such roles. This gives the opportunity to the black market of slavery to fulfil the demands of the clients.
